+1 from my side (There was some strange filter blocking the initial proposal
... now that's gone and I can see it __ )
Your version is definitely so much more complete ... good job ... definitely
have to use that as inspiration for my PLC4X reports __

I merged info from the two drafts and will submit the following.
Feel free to update the submission as I’m out the rest of the week.

===============================
Edgent
Apache Edgent is a programming SDK and micro-kernel style runtime
that can be embedded in gateways and small footprint edge devices enabling
local, real-time, analytics on the continuous streams of data coming
from equipment, vehicles, systems, appliances, devices and sensors of
all kinds (for example, Raspberry Pis or smart phones). Working in
conjunction with centralized analytic systems, Apache Edgent provides
efficient and timely analytics across the whole IoT ecosystem: from the
center to the edge.
Edgent has been incubating since 2016-02-29.
Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
1. Create and expand a diverse community of contributors and committers
around the Edgent project.
2. Attracting at least another independent committer/ppmc member.
3. Finding further real world users of Edgent
Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?
Community growth and participation continues to be an issue. One of the
two active committer/PPMC members is retiring at the end of February
and the level of their continuing participation is unclear.
But synergy with Apache PLC4X is encouraging.
How has the community developed since the last report?
* Apache PLC4X is very interested in and promoting Apache Edgent as
part of their overall story. An initial Edgent connector was created
and contributed to PLC4X. Christofer Dutz demonstrated Edgent
working together with PLC4X at the IoT Hessen Meetup at end of
December and at Nortec Hamburg (Industrial fair).
* Total, we have 72 subscribers to our mailing list, a reduction
of 1 since the last report.
How has the project developed since the last report?
* Apache Edgent 1.2.0 was released. The release is the culmination
of the conversion to Maven and includes a number of enhancements and
bug fixes. Binaries are now available from Nexus and Maven Central
to make it easier to use Edgent.
* Edgent Samples are now available via the new GitHub repository
apache/incubator-edgent-samples.
* According to JIRA, 8 new issues were added and 23 issues were resolved
in the last 90 days
* 62 commits were made in the last 90 days.
How would you assess the podling's maturity?
Edgent is making slow but consistent progress towards graduation. While we
don't yet meet the diversity requirements, we put emphasis on community
growth through outreach which will ultimately pave the way for additional
committers and contributors.
Additionally, before we graduate it is important that we find users
outside of IBM. As most Edgent committers are employed by IBM, external
stakeholders help ensure long term contribution to the project.
